It's cold and hot, and it's all right to make small rice balls with a bowl of wine

I am a vegetarian who loves to eat sweet wine small tangyuan.

It can be said that my pursuit of food is very persistent, single-minded, and the requirements for ingredients are quite high, and I always believe that good ingredients are the root of the delicious soul, and everyone injects different souls, different cooking methods, and presents different delicacies.

After the summer, I think of a lot of seasonal dishes, the best of the season are red amaranth, broad beans, cucumbers, and of course, sake brewing.

Seasonal dishes, how to cook are delicious. And my favorite way is: crush the garlic, heat the oil, add lard, heat, garlic, put in the tender red amaranth, quickly stir, wait for the red juice to be boiled, add the right amount of water, let it boil to make a rich red soup, out of the pot. Take a bite, the garlic flavor is mixed with the unique fragrance of red amaranth, and I can eat a whole bowl alone.

Fava bean is a dish that I fell in love with in Shanghai. One of the dishes that Shanghainese like is fava beans, especially love, choose the most tender fava bean meat of the season, clear burning, add water to boil, put some chives before the pot, mix a few times, you have already smelled the aroma, choose a good bowl to plate, just like a painting belonging to spring, emerald green.

Cucumbers, on the other hand, must be sliced before being lowered, as slicing in advance will only allow moisture to evaporate and loss of aroma and nutrients quickly. Let's slice a little seasonal green pepper obliquely, then a little minced garlic, lard heat, minced garlic, cucumber stir-fried, under the green pepper, this dish should be fast, stir on high heat, so that in the bowl, it is still crispy, not soft. A little spicy, easily dried out a bowl of rice.

Sake brewing is a dish that you feel is particularly heartfelt whenever you want to eat it.

When I was a child, when the weather was hot, my grandmother would put out a bowl of wine from her own fermented wine brewing altar, and then drink it like this, which was really a great anti-summer drink.

Now that I am older, I want to eat sake brewing, and I can buy it at any time on the aging shelf of the supermarket, and I can go back to cooking, and there is no taste, only the taste of sugar water.

The smell of looking around is not the taste of sake brewed in memory. There is only sweetness, no mouth-to-mouth fragrance that is drunk, and the refreshing aroma of wine.

In order to find this taste, I also made it myself, caring for it like a baby, the right temperature, and waiting for time to let it ferment. The final smell is several times better than the taste on the supermarket display shelf, but the aroma of wine is almost non-existent.

I think it's probably a problem with koji.

When my grandmother was a child, when I was making sake, the sake koji (sake koji of fermented sake) was made of a thumb-sized stone, made of Chinese herbal ingredients, and had to be crushed and crushed into powder.

Now what I can buy everywhere in the supermarket is sweet wine koji, which is made of rice flour and root mold. The taste of the product is very different.

For this reason, my heart is full of the taste of sake brewing when I was a child.

By chance, I learned that an old craftsman made his own sake, there are sold, and there is a small shop, how long this small shop has been in business I don't know, but his craftsmanship is from the surrounding area, even from abroad.

Deliberately drive forward, this shop in the old city of the newly remodeled community, on both sides is the old town of the old house after the transformation, are changed into antique costumes, along a small alley to the depths, leisurely alley, sometimes children running, sometimes there are electric vehicles shuttled by, you can also see them choose dishes, you can also hear the sound of pots and pans, along the road can not walk for a few minutes to this shop. It is really not afraid of the deep alley, a small shop, which is full of people. I ordered the original sake sake, arbutus sake brewing, sake brewed egg brewing, and sake brewed tangyuan respectively.

Well, that tastes right. The rich aroma of wine comes to the nose, eating, not intoxicating, but the wine is rich, with their own handmade glutinous rice dumplings, eat sweet but not greasy, so unhappy, satisfied!

Before leaving, I brought five pounds of original sake brew and two pounds of glutinous rice dumplings. I also asked if I could give some wine songs. The answer is that the boss naturally refused, which is the exclusive secret recipe. Hahahahaha

At this time, there are constantly people coming in and out, and there are really many people packing and taking away.

Food made with heart can really be eaten.

Sometimes when I go to the restaurant and the restaurant, the mood of encountering unpalatable dishes is bound to be bad, and people around me will say that I am picky about food, but in fact, I think good ingredients have been wasted in this way, and people who have worked hard to grow have wasted this hard-growing ingredient.

Everything is getting faster, life is getting faster, emotions are getting faster, learning is getting faster, eating faster (many restaurants have a central kitchen directly, or fast food, heated to eat on the table) but eat the food that goes to the heart, you will still be willing to slow down and taste it.

It also reminds me of some of the things I've said about some delicacies that are rushed and slow in the cooking process.

This is also very similar to some times in our lives, if you want to do a thing, you have a plan to come step by step, the desire is not so strong, just be quiet, first do a good job in front of you, this process can also slowly see the future extension line.

If you are in a hurry, make a lot of plans, and do not put them into action one day, this side is tossed down, that side is busy, there is a lot of work in the eyes, there is very little work in the hand, and in the end there is not a single thing on the ground.

Everything is too fast, if it suddenly slows down, maybe life tells you what you missed, you should feel yourself, feel the life in the moment.
